- Working toward any goal is merely a matter of selecting something I can do and then doing it.
- Brush and floss my teeth.
- Expend some energy while making my heart race and perhaps sweat a little.
- Eat some vegetables and maybe some fruit.
- Take some action which may by its doing make The World a better place.
- Remind someone I love them, especially those who (maybe) think I am upset with them.
- Honor reason as my guide and as the guide of others.
- Respect the evidence.
- Contemplate the good, the true, the kind, the wise, as these are our best guideposts.
- Say what I mean and mean what I say.
- Finish something I already started.
- “Yes and…” (or at the very least “Yes but…”).
- I’ll do my best to be my best me.
The trick is to make the hard things easy because we prefer to do what’s easy.
